On the morning of March 27, 1995, four quick shots cracked through Milan s elegant streets. Maurizio Gucci, heir to the fabulous fashion dynasty, had been ambushed, slain on the steps to his office by an unknown gunman. Two years later, Milan s chief of police entered the sumptuous palazzo of Maurizio s ex-wife, Patrizia Reggiani-nicknamed the Black Widow by the press-and arrested her for the murder. Did Patrizia kill her ex-husband because his spending was wildly out of control? Did she do it because he was preparing to marry his mistress? Or is it possible Patrizia didn t do it at all? The Gucci story is one of glitz, glamour, and intrigue a chronicle of the rise, near fall, and subsequent resurgence of a fashion dynasty. Beautifully written, impeccably researched, and widely acclaimed, The House of Gucci is a page-turning account of high fashion, high finance, and heartrending personal tragedy.
